Associate Dean, Distinguished Professor of Law, and Co-Director of the Center for Law and Energy Resources in the Rockies Sam Kalen got on the phone with Jon Wainwright to talk about some of the clinical opportunities for law students at University of Wyoming, interstate power grids and how those can be created without preempting federal law, NEPA and efforts to curtail some of its impact.

On the podcast, we talk about our favorite public lands, some of the great clinic opportunities afforded to University of Wyoming Law students who get involved in the university’s Center for Law and Energy Resources, how states can build out interstate grids without running afoul of federal law and regulations or running headlong in to preemption issues, and explore the National Environmental Policy Act.
